Owens & Minor Announces Launch of Senior Secured Notes Offering

Owens & Minor Announces Launch of Senior Secured Notes Offering

RICHMOND, Va. (BUSINESS WIRE)

Owens & Minor, Inc. (NYSE:OMI) (the Company ) announced today that it has launched a private offering (the Offering ) of $600 million aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes due 2030 (the

Notes ), subject to customary and market conditions.

Unless the previously announced acquisition (the Acquisition ) of Rotech

Healthcare Holdings Inc. ( Rotech ) is consummated concurrently with or promptly following the closing of the Offering, the Company will deposit the gross proceeds from the Offering into a segregated escrow account until the date that

certain escrow release conditions, including the consummation of the Acquisition, have been satisfied. The consummation of the Acquisition is subject to customary closing conditions.

The Notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior secured basis by the Company and certain domestic subsidiaries of

the Company that guarantee the Company s existing term loan facility and revolving credit facility. If the issue date occurs prior to the closing of the Acquisition (and subject to applicable grace periods), the Notes will be secured only by a

first-priority security interest in the escrow account and all funds on deposit therein. Following the completion of the Acquisition, the Notes and related guarantees will be secured on a first-priority basis by liens on the same assets that secure

the Company s existing term loan facility and revolving credit facility.

Upon the closing of the Offering or, if applicable, upon satisfaction of

the escrow conditions, the Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering, together with cash on hand and expected borrowings under a new senior secured incremental term loan B facility to finance the consummation of the Acquisition and the

other transactions contemplated by the related merger agreement, including the repayment of Rotech debt and to pay Acquisition related fees and expenses. Any remaining net proceeds will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.

The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act ), any state securities laws or the

securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and may not be offered or sold in the United States, or for the benefit of U.S. persons, except pursuant to an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of

the Securities Act and applicable state securities or blue sky laws. Accordingly, the Notes are being offered only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers, as that term is defined under Rule 144A of the

Securities Act, or outside the United States to non- U.S. persons in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act.

offering memorandum for the Offering is being made available to such eligible persons. The Offering is being conducted in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in such confidential offering memorandum.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell, a solicitation to buy or an offer to purchase or sell any securities. No offer, solicitation,

purchase or sale will be made in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. Any offer, or solicitation to buy, if at all, will be made only by means of a confidential offering memorandum. The Offering is not

conditioned on the consummation of the Acquisition, which, if consummated, may occur subsequent to the closing of the Offering. This press release does not constitute a notice of repayment of any outstanding indebtedness of Rotech. The terms and

conditions of the incremental term loan B facility have not been finalized and are therefore subject to change. The completion of the Offering is not conditioned upon our entering into the incremental term loan B facility, and our entering into such

facility is not conditioned upon completion of the Offering.
